Five Lines For Tillerman's Fifth

.

Frogma has crafted some cheery lines of rhyme to celebrate Tillerman's fifth year at the blog, and Greg has followed suit, even suggesting this should become an underground, unsanctioned writing project. Not wanting to miss a trend, especially one involving cheesy verse, here's my contribution.

A bloke from Blighty who blogs a lotLeads us halfway into the fog a lot,But this Tillerman's lightGuides us all through the night,Though he may get into the grog a lot.

Certainly, you can do better than this. Can you find it in your heart to compose five lines for Tillerman's fifth - or whatever your muse can afford? Post it on your blog, at Frogma's or Greg's, or, if you're down and out, in the comments here.

Write five lines for Tillerman's fifth. Or, better yet, send him a fifth.

Where is O Dock?

For the literal minded, O Dock is in Berkeley, California, where I keep an old Catalina 30, but O Dock is really more a state of mind. It's where a part of me lives whenever I can't actually be sailing.
